I think I bought this laptop: Code: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834101203 Features: Model Brand Gateway Model P-7908u FX Edition General Operating System Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit CPU Type Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 2.53G Screen 17" WXGA+ Memory Size 4GB DDR3 Hard Disk 500GB Optical Drive DVD Super Multi Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260M Video Memory 1GB GDDR3 Display Screen Size 17.0" Wide Screen Support Yes Display Type Wide XGA+ Resolution 1440 x 900 LCD Features Ultrabright LCD Display CAN I REPLACE the 17" WXGA screen (which has a maximum resolution of 1440x900) with a 17" WUXGA screen (which has a maximum resolution of 1920x1200).
Upgrading laptops is can be very difficult to do. The only things that are made to be easily upgradeable are memory dvd drives and hard drives. Everything else will require some modding skills.
Replacing the screen is actually very easy... Watch these videos: Instructions - How to Replace a laptop screen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eaI5aobwDU Laptop LCD Screen Replacement http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZw9bA_XlU8 Anyway, my main question is if it will work?
It would work, but I was saying that it was a more difficult thing to upgrade. Also you would need to find out how to disassemble you laptop. Some can be a pain to take apart. If you feel that you can do this without messing it up, then go for it.
